It should be understood that when a component such as a layer, film, region or substrate is referred to as being “on” or “connected” to another component, it may be directly on or connected to the another component, or an intermediate component may exist. In contrast, when a component is referred to as being “directly on” or “directly connected to” another component, there is no intermediate component. As used herein, “connection” may refer to a physical and/or an electrical connection. Further, “electrical connection” or “coupling” may mean that there is another component between two components.

As used herein, “about”, “approximately”, or “substantially” is inclusive of the stated value and means within an acceptable deviation range of the particular value as determined by one of ordinary skills in the art, considering the discussed measurement and a particular quantity of errors associated with the measurement (i.e., the limitations of the measurement system). For example, “about” may mean within one or more standard deviations, or within ±30%, ±20%, ±10%, or ±5% of the stated value. Further, as used herein, “about”, “approximately”, or “substantially” may be used to select a more acceptable deviation range or standard deviation depending on optical properties, etch properties, or other properties, rather than applying one standard deviation to all properties.
